Sien Vanmaele writes, creates, and performs her own theater productions. She graduated from the Maastricht Theater Academy as an actress. Her solo work is always based on personal experiences that reveal life's little tragedies. A broken heart, uncertainty about the future: the pain that Vanmaele explores in her pieces and that runs like a thread through her work is one that we can all recognize.
Whether she does this in the form of video performances, music performances, podcasts, online interaction, or sensory performances, one thing is certain: the disarming and vulnerable way in which she conveys her message each time will ensure that everyone feels a little more comforted afterwards.
What is undoubtedly unique about her work is her focus on the senses. Taste, touch, and smell are stimulated in the audience. Sien is passionate about everything to do with food, the systems surrounding it, and its impact on the climate.
